On a cold winter’s evening, the residents of the Flemish town of Broekem gather in the local parish hall to celebrate a significant triumph. United under the guidance of local politician Tibo Deleyder, they have successfully blocked the opening of a refugee centre in their community.
The hall buzzes with anticipation as Monique, the host of the evening, prepares to serve the traditional Flemish beef stew, carbonnade à la flamande.
It promises to be an evening to remember… .
